Hello aspirant,

It depends on your interest and only you can decide which branch is better for you. First let us understand the difference between these two engineering branches. Both Electrical Engineering & Electronics and Communication engineering are the core engineering branch.  In ECE student may also get jobs in govt generally in electrical engineering you study about the power system, electrical machines, power system electrical machine, power electronics, switch gear and protection, network
or circuit theory and EMFT. While in ECE you generally study about analog and digital electronics.

Hope you understand,
Thank you.

Hello,

Electrical is a core branch and Information Technology is a non-core branch. There are more government jobs in electrical engineering and more private jobs in IT. 

But if you want instant placement after completing engineering your chances will be high in IT. But you have potential of appearing for exams like GATE and ESE. You will get more secure future in Electrical engineering.
